Gefen Reveals Dual Link DVI To Mini-DisplayPort Converter

Intel's Thunderbolt I/O port is the buzzword right now, but DisplayPort
still has a long life ahead of it. Gefen has stepped up with a new
dual-link DVI to Mini-DisplayPort, which is designed to work with many
of today's new monitors that utilize mini-DisplayPort. Most legacy
laptops only support DVI, but if you buy a new monitor (like the ones
from Apple), you'll need an adapter just like this to make the two play
together. The dongle supports resolutions as high as 2560x1600, and it's
good to use with both Windows and Macs.

It comes equipped with a USB port that powers the device and is used
for field upgrades, and it can be pre-ordered starting today for $199.
